#MAIHT3k

I have mixed feelings about this piece. The reporting seems fair but it's problematic to us "AI apocalypse" as the framing & elevate the fever dreams of those who are most insulated from the real harms.

https://spectrum.ieee.org/artificial-general-intelligence

AI doomers & AI boosters inhabit the same fantasy world, which would just be laughable except they are capturing too much of a scarce resource: the attention of policy makers.

For a more grounded view, I'd like to plug #MAIHT3k
